Exciting capability, and it seems that it works, when it works. I wonder what the failure modes and contingencies for those are. Hard to imagine that it has the redundancies that LAND 3 does, so I wonder what the safety standards for these Part 23 aircraft will be. Will there be Special Conditions? Will industry draft and establish its own standards, which the FAA must bless?

There are a few FAA lines of business, I would think, that must be involved in approving this. Certification, of course, flight standards and ATC. I wonder what the timelines are and whether there is a regulatory advisory committee supporting the development of standards.
